US Passport Photo Specifications
What are the photo requirements for a passport?
Here, you’ll learn some insights on US passport photos—an inseparable part of your first-time adult or baby passport application or renewal process.
A well-prepared passport photo will protect your application from being rejected by the US Department of State. Here’s a list of the most essential requirements you should follow to ensure a compliant US passport picture:
Size: 2x2 inches (51x51 millimeters)
Head size: 1–1 ⅜ inches (25–35 millimeters)
Backdrop color: Plain white or off-white background
Resolution: At least 300 DPI
Recency: Last 6 months
Prints: Matte or glossy photo-quality paper
You cannot alter, edit, or enhance your passport picture in any way—it must represent your current, natural appearance and reflect natural skin tones.
Ensure there are no shadows in your passport picture, whether in the background or on your face. Your facial features must be fully visible, your head must be straight, and you must look directly at the camera.
For your baby passport photos, the official passport photo rules are more lenient—very young children, infants, and newborns can have their eyes closed, mouths slightly open, and they can look away from the camera. However, you must ensure that the baby’s face is fully visible.


If you’re eligible for an online passport renewal, please pay attention to these digital passport image specifications as well:
Digital dimensions: 600x600–1200x1200 pixels
File size: Up to 240 KB
File format: JPEG
In color (sRGB color space)
US passport photo guidelines
Technical US passport photo regulations are one thing. There are also official guidelines—the ones you must follow—and some suggestions for you to try. After all, who doesn’t want to have a great 10-year photo?
Here, you’ll find some tips and guidelines regarding the dress code, hair, and general appearance acceptable for your US passport pictures.
While a neutral facial expression is preferred, you can smile in your passport photo. Just do it gently and ensure your mouth is closed.
Wear your hair however you like. Be careful about voluminous hair (your hairstyle must fit the picture’s frame) and hair that could cover your facial features. You can use hair accessories but they cannot be visible in the photo.
Choose a comfortable, everyday outfit for your passport picture. Avoid camouflage attire, uniforms, and anything that may obscure your facial features. Head coverings are forbidden unless for medical or religious reasons.
It’s okay to wear jewelry for your passport image. However, ensure there’s no glare, and they don’t obscure your facial features. Some facial piercings are acceptable.
Take off your glasses for a passport picture. If you must wear them for medical reasons, provide your photographer with a signed doctor’s statement verifying your condition.
You can wear makeup for your US passport photo. However, keep in mind that a biometric picture must reflect your natural skin tones. Avoid bright colors, lipsticks, dark eyeshadows, and fake eyelashes.
